Exterior photograph of a large white colonial-style palace building with a tiled roof, arched wooden-shuttered windows, a columned entrance portico, and a balustraded terrace. Tall palm trees and a leafy tree frame the view, and a bare-ground courtyard lies in front. A single man in a light-coloured shirt and white dhoti walks across the lawn to the left, and a small figure stands at the doorway. Stone lion-like sculptures flank the terrace steps.

Exterior of a whitewashed traditional palace building with a covered verandah of white columns on a low plinth, sloping tiled roofs, carved lattice-style parapet panels and a large leafy tree behind. No people are visible in the scene. The setting suggests the historic palace grounds in Kerala.

A courtyard of a white colonial-style building with terracotta-tiled roof and wooden balconies, shaded by large trees. A figure in an ornate orange robe carries an orange umbrella while walking across dry ground with a group of about seven people in white dhotis and white kurtas, some carrying bags. Another person in a yellow-gold garment walks separately on the right. The group moves past an arched doorway with a low white wall. No appearance-based identification of the orange-robed figure is made, so the role is described as a robed walker.

A narrow concrete path runs between a tall white-washed wall on the left, stained with dark moss and streaks, and a two-storey white building on the right with rows of dark-framed windows and a dark wooden door at ground level. Overgrown green grass and shrubs line the path, with large leafy trees and a tall palm overhead. At the far end, a passage with a reddish-tiled roof opens toward a traditional building. No people are visible.

Another white-clad figure walks separately on the right. The setting appears to be a traditional palace compound.
